A New Low In Play Calling Futility - TE Wildcat?

I believe the OC should have place every offensive lineman in that position to experience what Spencer Petras felt like with absolutely NO protection all year. Joking of course.
If you didn't get the point that it was about giving props to Sam for the type of player and teammate he was then you are lost

Welp, I guess when you give your tight end a full series at QB before you even consider letting your 2nd string QB step foot on the field, 2nd string QB doesn't take kindly to the insult.
Pretty much. In this day and age guys aren’t going to stick around if they don’t think they are getting a fair shake. So many missed opportunities to play the back up QBs this year.
 
What does a coach on the hot seat do when he has a full month of bowl prep to improve upon his offense in hopes of saving his career?

1. Arduously study what other successful coaches have done to create big plays and steal some outside ideas?
2. Evaluate all the talent on your roster and figure out a way to get your fastest and most elusive playmakers the ball in space?
3. Change your WR route trees to figure out ways to get them the ball?
4. Double down on the exact same failing offense, but add one new wrinkle involving direct snapping to...your tight end, who runs a 4.8 40?

If you said #4, you are correct! Never before have fans been exposed to anything as dumb as intentionally designing a wildcat offense around your tight end. Certainly not when you've got a wide range of explosive playmakers like Cooper DeJean, Kaleb Johnson, or X available to run it. Tight end wildcat (unless the tight end has elite speed, which LaPorta does not have) defies logic. It's not cute, it's not innovative, and it's not acceptable.

Playmakers see what's happening and are defecting right and left. Each of the top 4 Wrs on Iowa's roster have already jumped ship, Charlie Jones, Arland Bruce, Keagan Johnson, Tyrone Tracey finding success elsewhere. Iowa's staff has replaced them with recruits who have minimal, if any, scholarship offers from other schools. The transfer portal, thus far, has been a bust at WR. Copeland can't even get DIII WRs kids to commit, let alone the elite Power 5 WRs needed to right the ship. Can you blame them? They still don't know who will be calling plays for Iowa next year and they know Brian can't get it done.

Yesterday's bowl game ineptitude was the final straw. The program cannot move forward with Brian calling the plays. It sends the wrong message to athletes, parents, and fans.
Absolute dumbest post in the history of all Iowa boards. And that’s saying something.
 
It was KF showing the fans that there could actually have been a worse QB during the last 3 years.
 
Did you see his run after catch on the TD drive? Definitely not stupid to give him the ball
 
I was hoping they would consider Cooper for the Wildcat. He is a former QB and can throw it. He would be perfect in the red zone or goal to go.
 
Not sure why you think he is wrong. It is pathetic that after a month of game planning that's what BF comes up with? LOL. It was by far the stupidest thing I've ever seen.
Would you just shut up? The diarrhea coming from your mouth gets old

Law, imagine this Hawk team vs any team with an offensive pulse. 0/13 on third downs lol. It would had been Ohio State like. How Barta keeps getting these bowl draws and the cushy conference schedule is a tribute to his brilliance.

Says the ahole that probably can't change a light bulb
Sorry Kurt, just busting your balls. I recently did well changing out the burned out light bulbs in our fridge after a few years of neglect LOL, so I can change a light bulb.
